A driveway is only as good as what is underneath it. Most of the sunken, rutted drives we get called to replace failed because the sub-base was too thin, not because the surface was wrong. We dig out properly, compact in layers and get the falls right.

Part of our landscaping & outdoor work

Proper build-up

Excavate to depth, lay and compact MOT Type 1 in layers, then screed and lay. Edge restraints are haunched in concrete, because block paving without a solid edge spreads and drops within a couple of years.

Drainage and permeability

Front drives that drain to the road usually need planning permission unless the surface is permeable or the water is directed to a soakaway or border. We design in drainage from the start.

Recent work

We recently completed an extended driveway in Henley-in-Arden — a straightforward transformation that changed the whole frontage of the property.

Driveways & Patios questions

How long does a driveway take?
Most domestic drives take between three days and two weeks depending on size, surface and how much excavation and drainage work is involved.
Do I need planning permission?
For a permeable surface, or one that drains to a soakaway or lawn, generally not. For a non-permeable surface over 5m² draining to the road, generally yes.
Can you widen my existing drive?
Yes — including dropped kerbs where the local authority approves them, and matching in to existing paving where possible.
